Native to Spain, Portugal and Morocco, a spectacular tall grass with attractive seed heads in autumn. Takes a few years to achieve maturity but well worth the wait.
Improved form with wider leaf blades than the species and larger inflorescence. A beautiful plant for larger spaces.
Enourmous biennial with a stout woody trunk and silvery downy foliage. Ornamental and a great feature plant. Pink flowers to 2.5 m, often takes two years to flower, needs dry conditions. Photo courtesy of Peter Worgan Mnt Teide Tenerife.
Tall lemon and lime pokers fade to ivory as the individual buds open. A pleasant and subtle colour combination that contrasts well with the dark foliage of Anthryscus "Ravens Wing".
A spectacular shrubby species from Chile with greyish felted leaves and contrasting brick red flowers. An unusual and attractive border plant if you have room.
Beautiful grey foliage variety with musk pink flowers in early summer. Trim as lavenders and salvia.
A superb variety, flowering long into autumn with rich indigo flowers. Tip prune young plants to encourage bushy form before flowering. Ideal with roses and in cottage gardens.
A splendid shrubby variety that will attain a height of 5 ft if given the space. The flowers are deep red with a contrasting black calyx, which is a striking effect when viewed from a distance. Trim back in early summer before flowering if you have limited space or prefer a more compact plant.
Frost tolerant winter dormant variety with sky blue flowers in mid summer. Tall and self supporting, a good border plant for background fill-ins.
Spectacular tall salvia from Mexico, with long canes topped with coral pink flowers in late summer. I particularly like the large, tropical-looking felted leaves.
Mashua. Grown in the Andes for its edible tubers which are best roasted like potatoes or yams. A climbing, shade loving plant which needs a cool site and good drainage.
